085: Can AI Tools Find Your Business? What I Found in ChatGPT, Gemini & Perplexity
In this episode of The Website Success Show, Jules White explores how AI tools like ChatGPT, Google Gemini and Perplexity are starting to recommend real businesses – including local ones – in their search results. Drawing on recent examples and live walkthroughs, Jules shares what these tools are really looking for, and why you don’t need a fancy website to show up in AI-driven searches.
You’ll hear a practical breakdown of how AI search works, what data it’s using (hint: Google reviews, your website content, and local listings), and what simple updates can help position your business to be recommended — whether you’re a skin clinic, dog boarding provider, or salon.
Key Takeaways:
- AI Tools are Replacing Traditional Search (Sometimes): ChatGPT and others are now offering curated business recommendations, sometimes showing product images, reviews and links – just like a smart local directory.
- Why Local Businesses Still Have an Edge: Google Business Profiles, local keywords, and consistent listings are critical if you want to show up in AI search results.
- The Role of Reviews, Copy, and Clarity: AI tools prioritise businesses with strong reviews, well-written descriptions, and clearly defined services – not just beautiful websites.
- What to Optimise First: Foundational SEO still matters most. That includes making your website readable, linking from trusted sources, and using the language people actually search for.
If you're ready to make your website more AI-friendly without overhauling everything, this episode will help you understand where to start.
